Ingredients
  

  • 1 12 ounce package frozen cooked meatballs

Method
 

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (190°C) for 3–5 minutes.
  2. Arrange the frozen meatballs in a single layer in the basket—leave a little space between each for optimal air flow.
  3. Cook for 8 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even browning and a crispy finish.
  4. Check the internal temperature—it should read at least 165°F (74°C) for safe eating.
  5. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce, marinara, or toss in BBQ sauce for a sweet-and-spicy twist.
